Shell脚本删除带空格的文件

Question

I'm trying to delete all files in a certain folder with an .sh script (linux) which are older than one day. This script is running daily and needs to delete all files in the "DTV" folder. So far I have tested with a .sh file called (full file path shown):

/volume1/tasks/dtv_delete_old_files.sh

This file contains the following command inside:

find /volume1/video/DTV/ -mtime +1 -exec rm {} \;

The folder location where the files inside need to be deleted are located here:

/volume1/video/DTV

The files inside this folder have the following naming format (full path shown):

/volume1/video/DTV/2016-02-19_1859_BBC NEWS_BBC News.ts

The script is unsuccessful deleting the files. I believe this is due to the fact that the file has spaces in the filename. Does anyone know how I could formulate the script so that all files in the DTV folder would be deleted (excluding the folder itself). Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Here's man find :

When find figures out how many 24-hour periods ago the file was last accessed, any fractional part is ignored, so to match -atime +1, a file has to have been accessed at least two days ago.

Use -mtime +0 to delete files that are 24+ hours old. Spaces don't matter.
